The New Moon Stone's effect was still going on. The energy within this Gale Dragon was constantly being digested and growing. I could see that its wings seemed to have grown a full circle larger. The larger the membrane, the farther it could glide. Its atavistic transformation had granted it the flying ability that Gale Beasts lacked, and the New Moon Stone would cause it to undergo a complete ancestral mutation.
